About
The course at the Orange Tree Golf Resort provides an excellent game of golf in a luxurious setting. The Parkland-style layout features fairways lined with mature trees, which not only enhance the natural beauty of the golf course but can also greatly affect shots. Four lakes are situated on the flat terrain of the course, providing water hazards that come into play on five holes. Sand bunkers also surround every green. Orange Tree Golf Resort's course finishes with its signature hole, where water cuts into the fairway and proceeds to run down the left side all the way to the green. It also requires accuracy on the approach shot in order to hit the small putting surface that is surrounded by tricky elements.

Ranger/Tee schedule
We were stacked up with 4 groups on the second hole. I watched as the ranger hunted for balls and then ignore the congestion. He pulled up to the tee and I commented about the congestion. He snarkily said,we are busy today! He has silver grey hair with shades acting like an arrogant ahole. We saw him lap the course several times after that with no improvement in the pace of play and no comments. On 18 tee we were waitng after 2 hours and 15 minutes and waiting every shot.A combination of a greedy timing of 7 or 8 minute tee times and a lees than adequate ranger made our round unbearable. Two hours and forty minutes after we started we left the course after nine holes of golf.
No refund
Seems like you have to die before Golf Now will refund your money even when a person comes down with Covid. I was charged $295 for my one round of golf when my partner came down with Covid and couldn’t make it. Although I have used the service many times before, I am done because of the refusal to make it right. Goodbye forever if I am not compensated for my loss. The tee time was filled by another who was charged on top of what GN took from me for no service rendered.
Course very playable
Enjoyed the fairways and pace of play
Staff to include starter very friendly and helpful
$50 course that charged $150
Resembled an average muni course everywhere else, played Legacy the day before for same price and it was a better layout, manicured, and all the extras were included, unlike here where range balls and things cost extra,
One of favorites in Az
Really nice course and fun to play. The greens are a challenge so practice your putting stroke. Make the value as “average” cause all the courses in AZ this time of the year are ridiculous high priced.
Good Az flat resort course
No surprises at Orange Tree. “ it is what it is”…. Decent shape , normal golf layout with no goofy holes.
My “ only” comment on the negative side is not directed at Orange Tree but all the golf courses that fall into this category. That Category being basic traditional ( non five star elite golf courses ). Watch your PRICE elevations.
I know it is tempting to gouge while the golf boom is on ( supply and demand )… but remember who your “ bread and butter” customer is.
Thats my two cents
Orange time
A good value for what I paid. Nobody in front of us and nobody behind us
Reasonably priced golf on Scottsdale
We played twilight golf at Orange Tree. The price was much more reasonable than most Scottsdale venues. The course was in great shape. Very wide fairways made for a forgiving course. Pace of play was great- we teed off at 230 and got 18 holes in!
Good course.
This is a nice course. The reviews criticizing course condition are unfair. I found it in good condition. Some of the rough was brown and bare but this is true of other courses too. I didn’t find it detracting. While the course is pretty flat, it is not boring. It is a nice layout. The greens were in good shape and require good ball placement or you can be penalized.
All in all I recommend the course and plan on playing there again.
